BFI London Film Festival - Red Carpet Accessible Viewing Area
The Access Carpet is a dedicated alternative space to the "red carpet" at the BFI London Film Festival, designed for deaf, disabled or neurodivergent guests who may find the traditional red carpet difficult or inaccessible to navigate due to crowding, noise, or other accessibility needs. Please complete the form below to apply for a place in the Accessible Viewing Area. If you already have a place in the viewing area we ask that you don't apply again so as many disabled film fans as possible can share the experience. There are limited spaces still available, all other sessions and waiting lists are full.
